    Lol thanks for showing other haters. I suppose I'll stop updating this thread.

    Re: 3.0 sohc build

    I would go with something larger than a 16g!
  6. Re: New here, Entertaining idea of building 12v 3.0 3000gt

    Yeah the n/a's are very similar to the tt, just smaller diameter. Definitely weighed a lot, glad it's gone!

    Many of the holes will be covered hopefully. I don't feel like filling them all in!

    Just another empty engine bay update. Removed a lot of little things and cleaned it up more

    Cleaned up the bay today. Will probably have a few more progress pictures of this to follow.

    I'm not a fan of wheel tuck. When I put my coilovers on, I'll leave a two finger sized gap above the wheel. Anything more is overkill
  11. Re: New here, Entertaining idea of building 12v 3.0 3000gt

    Here's another shot of the wheels. Car is still in 4x4 mode

    I'm going to do glow int he dark paint ;)

    Why all the hate for painted calipers? I think a well done red caliper looks great.

    18x8, i believe +35 offset, 245/40/18

    Brakes will be 2g vr4 with drilled rotors. I may paint the vr4 calipers red or black
  15. Re: New here, Entertaining idea of building 12v 3.0 3000gt

    Wheels are on. I will install the coilovers soon to get rid of 4x4 mode. I will polish the lips on the wheels as well, they are kind of faded. This also shows how badly I need to upgrade my brakes...
  16. Re: New here, Entertaining idea of building 12v 3.0 3000gt

    The engine in the garage is the SOHC i'm trying to sell. I may rebuild it for fun but we'll see.

    Thanks guys for the compliments, it sure has come a long way.

    As for the halos, it's the ricer...

    All shiny and purrtty. Just needs the dents removed and the body is good enough for me. Have coilovers i'll be installing soon and I will change out the wheels eventually.

  19. Re: New here, Entertaining idea of building 12v 3.0 3000gt

    Replaced it with the 97-98 style bumper. I much prefer this style to the 99.
  20. Re: New here, Entertaining idea of building 12v 3.0 3000gt

    I've been doing a pretty massive detail job. So far have gone over and washed it three times, did a very detailed claybar, and have gone through half the cutting process (ran out of time tonight). ...

    Don't worry, I'm not going DOHC :)
  22. Re: New here, Entertaining idea of building 12v 3.0 3000gt

    Hey all, no true updates yet. However, I do have the car in my garage now! The car was in St. Louis, my father was driving it around until he got his new car.

    The build is taking a drastic turn...

    Re: My v6 Drag Week build

    I've got a Turbonetics T66 with a .68 A/R that I can sell you for $550 shipped if you're interested.

    Also have an ebay T61 that I'd sell for $300 shipped
  24. Re: guess its time for a "whats needed to rebuild 3.0 thread"

    Go to a junkyard and buy another one, or bend it back.

    As for power steering, yes you can loop it. Many lsx rx7 people do this. It will be harder to move than a manual rack though.
